The last weekend in October saw an exciting new development in South Africa with the first sports ministry training taking place in Durban. A team from Botswana along with Nick, South Africa Region Manager, travelled to Durban to lead a 3 day sports ministry course. Delegates came from local schools, churches, NGO’s and local government offices and were 25 in total. The training took place at Lily of the Valley, a charity established in Durban to care for chilldren affected by AIDS/HIV and including training on Leadership, Planning & Organising, Team Building and Explaining the Gospel. During the afternoon the delegates put into practive what they had learnt by running programmes for the children.
The event was a great success and impacted greatly on those who attended. ”I’m definitely going to implement what i learned here in my school.” “The workshop was a blessing to me and I thank God for bringing The King’s Foundation into my life.”
This is just the start of what we hope will develop into a lasting partnership and will develop into further outreach work across South Africa.
